32、I was getting nowhere. I just couldt believe that she really thought it was acceptable to hang with a bunch of losers, especially her boy friend.

Passage Three Questions 31-35 are based on the following passage: As a century of grand retailing comes to a close, the 94-year-old merchant prince of Texas - who turned Neiman Marcus from a small specialty shop into one of

40、the worlds major retail stores - says department stores today must recreate themselves if they are to survive. Marcus is worried that customer service is being ignored. He considers home shopping networks a step above snake oil peddlers (沿街叫卖的小贩). And despite all the advantages he sees in selling ov

The MBA programs do not teach principles of selling, principles of hum

45、an understanding, principles of leadership speaking, which, he believes, is the most important thing. I do not want trained salespeople. The word training is the most terrible word.
